The Weekend Away!

I have just secured the 3 bedroom cabin (cottage?) for the March 1 weekend!  My M/C has been debited for the first night. What's cool is that the exercise room is newly opened! There's also a pool and several hot tubs!  I may think twice about dragging out my X-country skiis! The cabin has a coffee maker, but of course we have to supply our own coffee.  The cabin does have salt and pepper, so we'll have to bring whatever spices and condiments we need. There are dishes and pot and pans. I was thinking---since I'm bringing my slow cooker for the lime chicken soup (or whatever is it, sounds YUMMY) I could make up a pot of ham and bean soup as part contribution for the Friday night supper. My homemade soup is rich in protein and delicious, easy on the tummy!    What do you guys think? I AM SOOOO LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS!!    ((HUG)) **SUE**

Sounds good to me Sue.  Do you know, does the cabin have a grill (gas or charcoal)?  If so, I could bring my chicken and shrimp kabobs for one meal...they are really tasty.  Chunks of chicken, small shrimp, tomatoes, peppers, onions, potatoes...you can eat what you want of that.  They are easy and fun to do, and as I said before - really tasty!

Yup---there is a gas grill outside of the cabin.  Your shish-kabob sounds yummy!

Hey sweetie!   I am soo excited!  Um, we should do a sign up for meals/snacks and all.  There will be a total of 2 suppers, 2 lucnches and 1 breakfast.  Some might not be able to do all due to coming or going late/early.   Also, I think Friday night should be the relax at the lodge in which ever way you find the most relaxing.  Sat should be the let's go do and then what shall we do Sat night?????  And WHO'S staying the whole weekend and who's partial?!?!?!?!?  OH LADIES FROM THE AREA Only a week left!!!!!!!

I think a food/cook list would be a good idea, and I'm  under the impression Patti wants to spearhead that. Correct me if I'm wrong, Patti! Our cabin has a large TV/DVD player, so perhaps the Friday evening 'flake out' might include a few favourite movies?  After the hot tub? Our tentative plan for Saturday night is to meet up with Michelle G and Kathleen (colderbythelake) at the Blackwoods Restaurant on London Rd. for a later supper--she gets off work after 7:30 PM. ANY OTHER DULUTHIAN IS MORE THAN WELCOME TO  JOIN US even if you can't make it to the resort!! I did want to go X-country skiing Saturday, but if there's an  exercise room and swimming pool, that's good enough for me!  Any other 'fun thing' is good by me! Meals--Friday supper, Sat. breakfast and lunch, Sat. supper out. Sunday breakfast, then we have to vacate by 11AM. Am I right or am I right?! ((HUG)) **SUE**

I plan on coming up on Friday night and going home on Sunday.  Friday night "FLAKE OUT" sounds good.  I have a bunch of movies I can bring up - some older chick flicks and some newer ones plus a bunch of other stuff - comedies, romance, action, even some sci-fi....let me know what you would like.  I'll try to bring a variety of stuff if I don't hear any specific requests. Patti - I will bring a bunch of stuff for the kabobs, but I'm not sure I will be able to bring enough to feed everyone....how many are going to be eating with us, anyway?  I'm so excited...I really need a vacation!

Hi Laurie~ Any movie is good with me. I seldom go to the theatre,  so just about anything is new to me. There is a movie I'm just dying to see, and apparently it's a runner-up for an academy award. It's called 'Away From Her'--the story of a couple married FOREVER and she's developing Alzheimer's, and it's about how they cope.  See ya next weekend!
